So, even though I've only got one All-Grain batch under my belt, I've decided to create my own simple recipe and keep brewing it over and over so that I can really nail my process down.
For my hops I went with Crystal and Cascade, as I'm looking for a citrusy flavor profile. I wanted to use the hops in 1oz increments because I don't have a scale to measure them. I also wanted to do later additions with more hops to get a more smooth bittering from them and not lose as much aroma.
My grain bill is pretty simple, just the base, wheat and some caramel 10L. Would the caramel complement the flavor or would it be an odd flavor to be in a wheat beer?
What do y'all think of the possibility of this being a decent recipe? I'm open to all sorts of criticism/suggestions!
